It should have been a big season for Jonny Evans.

Sir Alex Ferguson had so much confidence in the 26-year-old during his final season in charge. It was Evans and not Nemanja Vidic who was selected for one of the biggest games of the season against Real Madrid in the Bernabeu.

However, David Moyes made Vidic and Rio Ferdinand his preferred centre-half pairing at the start of last season.

Along with a calf injury that wrecked the second half of his season, it made sure Evans didn't get the chance to kick on.

He should get more opportunities next season with Vidic and Ferdinand both set to leave.
